Hello, Miami fan here. Was seeing if any of you have heard rumblings of Alex Collins lately and where you stand with him. I know its pretty much Mia and FSU at this point, but i feel like hes always liked you guys as a potential darkhorse. Thanks_________________
^Props to Jamison.

Collins doesn't do interviews, so everything we are getting is secondhand, and needs to be taken with a grain of salt the size of Pablo Sandoval's gut.

Everything I've heard is that FSU has the best shot, but their odds aren't much better than a toss up. UM won't get him if the sanctions come down, and while his coach says distance isn't a problem, mama wants him in Florida.

Your guess is as good as mine.

and i'm not gonna believe it until after signing day. when a kid is this conflicted, it usually goes until the end._________________

So are guys like Chance and Evans almost definitely going to be 4 stars?

It really bothers me that our classes from 2002-07 are much better than our recent ones, despite us recently coming off back to back BCS bowl appearances. Just further solidifies the idea that BB and his staff cannot recruit. I'm sure Barry was a good recruiter himself but I didn't think he was anything special. Certainly not to the point that our recruiting would decline despite success in his absence. Just can't believe BB can be such a bad recruiter, it bothers me. Although there is no denying our staff is terrific at either finding underrated talent or developing guys well. Still would be nice to start having top 25 classes considering we've been at least a top 25 program of the last 5 years._________________

Some little things would help too. Like I love our traditional uniforms, but once and awhile, like 1 or 2 games a year, we could do something "sicker" like all black with special helmets or something. high profile recruits love that. i've read countless articles and interviews how top recruits know they're wanted by everyone, so they want everything. You gotta be able to offer that package or you're not landing them._________________
